The Lions signed Virgin to the practice squad Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Virgin was a strong special teams performer for the Lions last season, playing a team-high 360 snaps in 2019, so it's a bit of a surprise that he failed to make the active roster. However, he will remain with the team on the practice squad with hopes of getting called up should the team suffer any injuries in the secondary.

Virgin will remain with the Lions after the team placed a contract tender on the exclusive rights free agent Wednesday, Justin Rodgers of the Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Virgin excelled as a special teams option for the Lions in 2019, playing a team-high 360 snaps in that department. The 26-year-old produced 10 tackles (nine solo) in 15 games last year, and is expected to operate as a special-teams ace for the 2020 season.

Virgin was signed to the Lions' 53-man roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Virgin spent the first month of the season with the Lions before being waived in early October. The 25-year-old spent his first stint with the team playing exclusively special teams, and should have a similar role this time around.

Virgin was waived by the Lions on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Virgin was let go without a corresponding move hinting the Lions' brass was not impressed with the early September acquisition. Largely used as a specials team asset, Virgin will need some luck if he's to latch on elsewhere during the 2018 campaign.
